There’s a common misconception that H1B workers “take away” jobs. In reality, they often fill gaps in areas where U.S. companies struggle to hire. For instance, specialized roles in software engineering, data science, or chip design often go unfilled domestically. Moreover, studies have shown that H1B workers increase overall job creation. By enabling companies to expand, they indirectly generate new roles for U.S. citizens as well. Immigrants also start companies at high rates, which creates entirely new industries and job opportunities. So rather than being competitors, H1Bs are complements that make the U.S. economy more dynamic and innovative.
